 I got an e-mail yesterday the jets are on the way. again..
  The spooge on the YZ is jetting related but one bike at a time..
      The rivets get drilled out. you can replace them with new rivets or just use tek-screws (sheet metal self tapping)
I'll look for a vid on the rivets. 
  Can you snap a photo of the connection your talking about.  With winter coming you may want to remove the pipe and see about getting all the excess oil out.   If you keep making an oil mess in the garage it may not go well with the folks if they step in it!

Motorrad:
what was the problem with the KX?

Friar-Tuck:
 The carb was not the stock piece, finally got the correct jets on the way.   I had ordered jets for the bike and had them sent to Chris. Upon arrival the jets were not even close.  Re-ordered thinking I made a mistake...
  Wrong second time What the heck..   
    Found out the carb was off a 65 or something similar... Ordered jets again.. back ordered for a week.  now they are on the way..again..
   (sent Chris the tracking #)


Here's what a pop rivet is and how it works.

To remove them you can grind off the head with a sanding disk or drill the rivet out. 
  If you don't have a pop rivet gun and rivets you can use self tapping sheetmetal screws to put the silencer back together.   After cleaning and re-packing! :-D
